Kunming Huagu Hotel (Changshui International Airport Platinum Port Modern Plaza Store)
"The bed was very comfortable, and it's close to the airport. They also arranged transfers to and from the hotel, which was great. A big shout-out to staff member #6!"
Jinbi Hall Hotel (Nanping Pedestrian Street Jinma Bijifang Branch)
"We had a wonderful 2-night stay at Jinbi Hall Hotel. The service here is absolutely outstanding from start to finish: Seamless Arrival & Departure: When we first arrived at the DiDi drop-off location, the hotel staff was already there waiting for us to help carry our luggage to the property. On our check-out day, they went above and beyond again, escorting us and carrying our heavy bags all the way back to the DiDi pickup point. Muslim-Friendly Breakfast: They were incredibly accommodating with our specific dietary requests and ensured we had a breakfast suitable for Muslims, which we deeply appreciated. Incredibly Helpful Staff: While there is no microwave in the rooms or a shared kitchen, the staff was more than happy to reheat our food for us whenever we asked. Perfect for Prayers: The front desk team communicates flawlessly through the app and kindly granted us a late check-out so we could peacefully complete our prayers before our flight. Fantastic Location: It is perfectly situated on Nanping Pedestrian Street, and there are plenty of halal restaurants and food options right around the vicinity. Thank you to the wonderful team for their kindness, excellent communication, and amazing hospitality. Highly recommended place to stay"

I didn't have time for breakfast when I left in the morning, so they gave me some snacks. Really, really good, I highly recommend it!"
